118 Trouble on the fleet admirals plate! (2/2)

Sengoku groaned as he looked at the massive flood of papers that had found their way onto his desk. It had been barely a month since that big mouthed bastard Morgans got his hands on what had happened on Ohara, thankfully the world government had pretty much censored him by that point.

Still, the blowback of that matter had forced him to make CP9 work on the double! The scanty few that got their hands on the information before it had been categorically silenced had already thrown shade on the monstrous bounty that Sengoku had been forced to sign on one Devil child Nico Robin.

The revolutionary army had been having a field day! and vice Admiral Borsolino anything but. For he had been the only one that could be dispatched to reach the destination of issue in any sensible amount of time.

At this point Sengoku could not help but pity the lazy brat, he had been driven almost as ragged as Sengoku himself!

To top it all off, Garp had pretty much lost the trail of the upstart pirates that he had been pursuing. The only thing that stopped Sengoku from questioning his old friend's capabilities was because he knew that the temperamental fool knew when to act serious.

He had been sending back regular reports for god's sakes!

”Fleet Admiral!!” the sound of the door hastily broke Sengoku out of his revere. In marched a marine, his cap skewed in its placement, with a frail fluttering file in his hands, an anxious look in his face and a pronounced huff that told Sengoku that he had run up from the information room on the other side of Marineford.

”Soldier.” He greeted with a simple nod, his hands not leaving the weathered pen in between his fingers.

”Garp's report just came in! It's been signed off by Vice admiral Garp and Kuzan!” he said as he waved the paper around before placing it on the table with a worried expression.

The fleet Admiral nodded calmly, a hint of dread in his heart as he dismissed the man with a wave of his free hand, his afro quivering.

His glasses gleamed unnaturally as he perused the contents of the unpunctuated letter. It spoke of how Garp had Kuzan on ship. And what Kuzan met with, resembling a certain pirate that Sengoku had hoped would be forgotten, he had hoped that a monster such as Garp would be enough to sniff him out and put a stop to him before he took up place alongside recent upstarts like Kaido or Linlin, or heaven's forbid fucking whitebeard.

Again his fears had been proven accurate it seemed..

”Goddamnit Kong, you made it look so fucking easy..” he muttered darkly as he did the only thing he knew he could do. He sanctioned a bounty.
